Scalloped Chicken Casserole - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 (4 lb) roasting chickens
    2 cups shell macaroni
    8 ounces shredded Velveeta cheese
    1 teaspoon salt
    1/2 teaspoon pepper
    3 cups chicken broth
    1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
    1/4 cup flour
    1/2 cup melted margarine
    2 -3 cups fresh breadcrumbs
Preparation
    Boil the chicken and shred meat off of bones (I always do this ahead of time).
    Cook and drain macaroni shells.
    In a large bowl combine broth and soup and mix flour into that mixture.
    Add cooked macaroni, shredded chicken, cheese and seasonings to broth mixture and pour into a 9 x 13\" pan.
    Process 2-3 slices of white bread in a blender or food processor on crumb mode and mix with margarine. Sprinkle crumb mixture over the top of the casserole.
    Bake at 325 degrees F for 30-35 minutes, until top is browned and cheese is melted.
    *NOTE* I do not recommend using dried breadcrumbs as they make the dish too salty.
